Building a Pickleball Court from scratch - New Glarus, Wisconsin

We received an email with this photo journal of a new pickleball court under construction.  Enjoy!

I thought that you might have some interest in our story. My partner Paula and I had spent a few days visiting our best friends in Casa Grande, Arizona the last couple of winters. They introduced us to pickleball while we were there and we were hooked. We debated about putting in our own court last year and decided against it. Upon returning from Arizona last Spring, we couldn't hold out any longer and went forward with our own court in New Glarus, Wisconsin.

 

It could not have gone smoother.

We broke ground in early May.

In July we had Kirk Lingner from Illinois come up and stay with us for 3 days and do the prep work, painting and lines.

He did an awesome job.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our friends from Arizona are staying with us this Summer.

We are playing all the time and having a blast.

So glad we took the leap.
